First of all I want to let you know I hold you in the highest respect with everything youve done for us. Also about blowing engines Ive seen quite a few NSX's go boom, does that mean they were crap cars? I know you havent posted about being able to mod the MSP but I have talked to you before when you were lack of a better word fed up with the low aftermarket support for the MSP WIth that said, the MSP is a Tuned car and what tuned car do you know that doesnt have some kinda problems. What kinda stock car do you know of that doesnt have some problems. I think its safe to say that cars costing more than 20K have had more problems than the MSP have also. http://www.myvwlemon.com/ubb/Forum5/HTML/000047.html Everyone should have known what they were getting into this with car. Yes its factory backed but when push comes to shove this is the first time Mazda has brought out a car like this so everything is not going to work smoothly. Its not you that Im mad at or anything Im just getting tired of people acting like EVERYTHING should be absolutly perfect with our car. I think People try to look for new ways to dislike our car, I remember back a while people were complaing about the the sound of our horn THE SOUND OF OUR ******* HORN they disliked. And others think they should have gotten this car or that car while knowing nothing about what that car could be or if they could dislike it more than what they have now. Bottom line theres nothing wrong with our cars, it turns it goes and stops just fine for what it is. I still love driving and just looking at my car and wouldnt want anything else sitting in my driveway
ITs a car, and gets from point A to point B, but if thats all I wanted, I wouldve jkept my Neon.

I can get over the fact that this car, as is, is not very "tuner friendly" I can get over the fact of the small squeeks in the cabin. ( I just play my radio loud) I cannot get over the fact the MAzda put a problematic suspension on a car 2 years after the origional issue was found. I cannot get over the fact that the cars Fuel/Timing is poorly tuned, and will not be fixed, because Mazda does not want to pour more money into the MSP project. I cannot get over the fact that my Tranny is about to drop, I cannot get over the fact that Mazda has abandoned its origional promise to deliver performance parts for the MSP.
Other then that, I will keep my car, work to have our issues resolved, build my car how I see fit, and then sell it and start all over again.
FBI, there are few people who can take a car, regardles of its issues, and make it better. I just dont want to see someone expecting this wonderful car, spend their hard earned money on it, and then be disapointed. It is a common factor on this forum. Many here are not going to pretty mcuh tear apart thier car, and rebuild it to be an EVO KILLAR. Therefore, it is not the car for your average enthusiast.
That is all Im trying to really convey here, I do somewhat still love my car. It makes me happy to see it, in all its Spicy pimpness, but I still have my issues with MNAO.
